Virgin Galactic - Bringing space flight to the consumer

Link

quote:
Due to the unique technology developed by Burt Rutan, this space craft design has overcome the difficult issues of re-entry into the earth's atmosphere faced by so many designers trying to create efficient, re-usable space vehicles.

Using designs based on Burt Rutan's Spaceship One X-Prize entry, apparently. Link Cool! Sign me up.

Only $200,000 a seat

You'll finally be able to tell someone, "I'm in a virgin, IN SPACE"

Burt Rutan and the Scaled Composites people are brilliant.

Coolest aircraft designs EVER. The Beechcraft Starship is super awesome. A damn shame they're being dismantled though.

I wonder if Mr. Sulu will fly the ship?

I say us TA's all go up & have a massive Rave inside one of those bad boys.

Zero Gravity + EDM music + alcohol + trying to dance =
